Controllers for Nintendo Switch

The device is a special controller for the Nintendo Switch console, which can unlock additional capabilities of the device and make the gaming experience more fun and varied. The gamepad is designed in such a way that the player can use it as an independent gaming manipulator. An advantage of this model is the inclusion of an accelerometer and gyroscope, which aids in a more immersive gaming experience.

It is worth highlighting the design of the device and its construction — the gamepad is comfortable to hold due to well-thought-out ergonomics, and the control elements are positioned to make operation simple and convenient. The Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Controllers connect to the console via a wireless interface, which greatly simplifies usage. There is vibration feedback, allowing you to fully feel all the events happening in the game. The technical equipment of the gamepad ensures a lag-free gaming experience, and the device weighs just 181 g, so your hands won't tire during extended gameplay. A pleasant feature is the presence of a special screenshot button, allowing you to capture the most important moments of the gaming experience.

Model overview based on user reviews  
The Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Controllers are praised for their vibrant color options and the ability to customize the Switch by mixing and matching different sets. They are equipped with motion controls that work well with many Nintendo games and come with convenient straps to prevent accidents. Users appreciate their compact size, making them easy to carry, and the high-quality vibration feature. However, some find the ergonomics lacking, especially for those with larger hands, and note the plastic quality could be improved. A significant issue is the stick drift that occurs after a month of use, causing unintended movements. Despite these drawbacks, they are recommended for multiplayer gaming and parties, especially in larger families or groups. The controllers are considered a bit toy-like compared to other brands, but they hold a charge well and have a fast response time. Overall, they are a worthwhile purchase for enhancing multiplayer experiences on the Nintendo Switch.
Pros

Cons

In principle, I recommend buying them additionally, only for parties, etc.
10 October 2020 
I bought them together with the console. At first, there were some inconveniences since I was transitioning from Xbox, PC. Initially, I had to get used to the controls, the shape, and basically everything. But you get used to them by the next week, or you might get used to them immediately, like my cousin did. Buy additional Joy-Cons ONLY if you live in a big family or are always in a big company. I don't see the point in buying them for any other reason.
-Compact size. They can easily fit into some kind of hard headphone case.
-Vibration. The vibration sometimes makes you think there are balls rolling inside the Joy-Cons, and overall the vibration is top-notch.
-Response. They have a very fast response, can work well even when detached from the console, and can be used to swing a sword, etc.
-Infrared camera. It can track, for example, your mouth movements.
-Material and buttons. The Joy-Cons themselves are made from quality plastic, and the buttons press very easily and pleasantly.
-Sticks. Wow, everyone has heard about this already, but I can't fail to mention it. After about a month of use, you start to get "drift". This is when you’re not touching the sticks, but the console detects that you’re moving the camera, for example, to the right. And it’s very unpleasant. I would like Nintendo to remove this disadvantage from the Joy-Cons.
-Motion control. Sometimes the motion control severely falters and the "hands" get twisted, which makes it simply inconvenient to play.

Worth buying only for games for 3+ players
20 December 2024 
additional Joy-Cons were purchased for 4-player games, as the ones included in the set are not enough. Compared to adult gamepads from Sony or Xbox, they feel a bit toy-like, quite small, and people with large hands may find them uncomfortable to hold. The small sticks are inconvenient, but this is solved with caps for 50 UAH.
Different bright colors, you can combine the left and right joy-con from different sets and customize the switch to your taste.
Motion controls are present in many Nintendo games, and it is implemented quite well here; there are convenient straps so the joystick doesn't fly into the TV screen.
They hold a charge well.
